    Global variable for audio channer "BT Voice" is missing

    Willy · 0 · Posted

    I see that Tasker provides actions for the following audio channels / variables ...

    Alarm ...% VOLA Average ...% VOLM Notification ...% VOLN Ringer ...% VOLR System ...% VOLS In-Call ...% VOLC DTMF ...% VOLD BT Voice ... Could it be VOLB?

    I suppose it will not be very complicated to implement.

    Scene editing widgets camoflaged when love wallpaper is used.

    Noel Yap · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    When a live wallpaper is being used, scene editing has a completely white background which makes the widgets invisible. Can this be fixed?

    Allow variable to be set to result of search and replace

    Noel Yap · 5 · Last reply by Noel Yap

    It would be useful to perform a search and replace to a variable then place the result into another variable. Also doable, but more complicated in both implementation and use, is to allow lookahead regexes.

    Single line edit text element in scenes

    Delords Arthur · 1 · Last reply by Osuki Fujioka

    It would be great to be able to specify that certain edit text elements in scenes are single lines so that on the keyboard there's a next key instead of an enter key, similar to what you have when you set a maximum characters limit. Would greatly improve UX for a lot of scenes I've built

    Take photo - extra options. Possible plugin

    Mark g Anderson · 2 · Last reply by Ian Grody

    May I suggest a new plugin ("AutoCamera")to control all camera options. Like the ability to specify the ISO and/or picture quality settings when taking photos. It has also been suggested that EXIF data be able to be extracted as well. Thanks

    Allow Color Choice For Disabled / Un-Powered Actions

    Tasker Pro · 0 · Posted

    As of Tasker 5.0+ when an Action in a Task has been disabled (un-powered) the only thing to designate it as so is an olive-drab color bar to the left of it. 

    (Color may be different depending on theme).

    HOWEVER this doesn't make it very obvious that the Action has been disabled.

    In the future - this bar color should be configurable in Preferences AND there should be an option to have that entire Action greyed-out.

    Allow the option of Variable Set to copy cleared variable

    Steve Waring · 0 · Posted

    Have a check box in Variable Set so that if assigning one variable to another and the source variable is not set (cleared) then the target variable is cleared, rather than set to the name of the source variable.

    This would stop the need for If SET Then assign Else clear EndIf sequences.

    The check box would only apply when the source is a single variable.

    Allow variable substitution be specified

    Steve Waring · 0 · Posted

    Allow the use of %(somevarname} to be the same as %somevarname so that %[somevarname}A means substitute the value of %somevarname concatenated with A, rather than substitute the value of %somevarnameA

    IE, The same as in some shell scripting languages.

    undo button

    An undo button would be really helpful to revert any changes to tasks (such as accidental reordering)

    better reordering of tasks

    Jacques Aucamp · 2 · Last reply by Shane Thompson

    Reordering of tasks should rather be done with a small grabber to the left of the task such as what is seen on other apps like KWGT.

    Ability to change the size of the task edit view

    Jacques Aucamp · 0 · Posted

    Ability to change the size of the task edit view will be very good in order to see more tasks on one screen. Or a text based programmatic view (even if not editable)

    Export plugins actions in kid-apps

    Maher Tayara · 0 · Posted

    I think you should make new optional protocol for plugins to allow giving something like modules to tasker when exporting kid-apps (not always)

    And don't make it essential for every single action... so it will be easy for developers to implement

    Plugins developers may offer it as purchase from store

    I know it's a hard or maybe something semi-impossible but this will make plugins really useful in kidapps as they are not at all now..

    Hi, could you please add "folder /subfolders'' modification in File Modify Event

    Viki Malik · 0 · Posted

    Hi, could you please add "folder /subfolders'' modification in File Modified Event

    We can use File Modified event in tasker to find if a file is modified in a folder 

    Is it possible that it can check in the folder/subfolders if the file is modified

    Thanks 

    Regards 

    Viki

    Add Custom Settings for specific ROMs

    SmartPhoneLover · 0 · Posted

    I would suggest to include appropiate LineageOS (+ other possible based custom ROMs) missing java classes for Settings (Global, Secure & System), to be used on Java Functions; and/or include Settings into the new latest 'Custom Settings' action, if possible, too/instead.

    By now, the only way to check and change those values is using the commands: 'settings --cm get setting_name value' and 'settings --cm put setting_name value'.

    Notes - I include an example of the current error while trying to access specific classes from LineageOS ROM (attached image) - To know more about what I'm talking about you can check

    Root for internal File Manager

    Robin · 1 · Last reply by SmartPhoneLover

    Hi, 

    The internal Tasker file Manager has no Access (on Oreo and maybe other Android Versions) to /system or /sys. I think this is because it is not using root to Access it.

    So it would be nice to get a Feature like that to watch System files (Tasker functions are "File opened/closed")

    Thanks

    Using the Notification (or Alarm, Media, etc.) should respect the current "Do Not Disturb" setting.

    Print the program lines of tasks to printer.

    Andre Piers · 0 · Posted

    Can you make in the menu of tasker the option to print the program lines. Reason: in case of complex and long task sequences, the overview is lost. To print out will help the programming of task (and error debugging). Thanks! Obrigado!
